Itinerary
We get underway with a scenic drive of one hour to Dakshinkali, which is exactly 20 KM from Kathmandu. Arriving at the location where the Goddess Kali resides, we will explore the temple site. Dakshinkali Temple is a mystical abode of the goddess. We will discover the statue of Kali, where Kali is shown as putting her right foot on the chest of Lord Shiva, one of the principal deities of Hinduism. It postulates the fearsome power of the Goddess Kali, who is believed to protect her followers from misfortunes and mishaps. It also shows the supremacy of nature over man. After reverencing the Goddess Kali, we’ll explore the shrine area, which is surrounded by hills and forests. The sounds of bells around the temple, the mystical aura of the temple, and the herd of devotees make this place a spiritual place. We will experience it all, take powerful blessings from the goddess, and return to Kathmandu. The short but impacting trip will provide us with positive energy and vibes.

About Kathmandu
Kathmandu is Nepal's ancient, colourful capital, a valley city of temples, stupas and royal squares and the gateway to the Himalaya.
Kathmandu Durbar Square, the old royal square, is crowded with pagoda-roofed temples and palaces, and nearby lives the Kumari, the city's living child goddess. Thamel, the travellers' quarter, is a tangle of lanes selling trekking gear, prayer flags and handicrafts, busy with cafés and rooftop restaurants.
Top-ranked sights in Kathmandu: Namche Bazaar, Pashupatinath, Kathmandu Durbar Square (Basantapur).
